Guidelines and Resources
The NIAAA National Advisory Board and Extramural Advisory Board established a core of guidelines for conducting alcohol research. These guidelines include recommendations on:
- Clinical Trial Regulations, Policies, and Guidance – How to conduct clinical trials
- Recommended Council Guidelines on Ethyl Alcohol Administration in Human Experimentation - How alcohol researchers can ethically and responsibly administer alcohol to human subjects in the course of research
- Council Task Force on Recommended Alcohol Questions - How to develop and integrate questions that help determine people’s patterns of alcohol consumption
- Review of Extramural Research Areas - How to design and conduct research on a variety of alcohol topics
- Data and Safety Monitoring Guidelines - How to ensure the safety of participants in trials of behavioral or pharmacological interventions, human laboratory studies in which alcohol and/or drugs are administered, or human laboratory or clinical studies involving patients in alcohol treatment
- Certificates of Confidentiality (NIAAA-Specific) - Protecting the Identity of Research Subjects] - How to apply for authority to withhold the names and other identifying characteristics of individuals who participate as subjects in alcohol-funded research project
